Yeah, I just had Claude fill out the task list, and then before hitting the end of the task list ask whether I wanted to continue or whether getting some of it done was enough....

Never. Ever. Ever. Tell Claude you have a deadline. It will do this on every task. It will half-ass things to “get it done in time” and argue about whether or not an approach will be done “on time” because it is estimating in human hours.
